The Boston Red Sox have announced that they have recalled starting pitcher Alfredo Aceves from Triple-A Pawtucket and are planning to have him start Wednesday night's game against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Rookie reliever Jose De La Torre, who impressed in a relief appearance in Tuesday night's game, was optioned down to make room for Aceves on the roster. The move was made after the completion of Tuesday night's game, in which De La Torre surrended one run over 3 1/3 innings of work.

This is Aceves' third time on the major league roster this year. So far, he has a 6.57 ERA in seven appearances this season, including four starts. In his most recent start on May 27 against the Philadephia Phillies, Aceves lasted six innings and gave up one run.
